A lengthy final day in this event is likely, and it'll all get underway at 3pm PDT. Join us here at PokerNews as Phil Hellmuth makes a run at a record-extending 12th career WSOP bracelet.
Though Hellmuth would trade the lead with a dozen other players throughout the day, by the end of Day 2, he'd have it back again to himself. To win the event, though, he'll have to get through such tough-as-nails poker players as Victor Ramdin, Jens Voertmann, and Keith Sexton.
Twenty-one players remained as the clock hit 3:30 a.m. here on Day 2, and all of these players are coming back Tuesday at 3 p.m. PDT, to play to a single bracelet winner.
As always, official chip counts and table assignments when they are available!
